The mile world record had been stuck at four minutes, 1.4 seconds for nine years when England's Roger Bannister stepped onto the track at Oxford in May, 1954.

Near the same university where he earned his medical degree, Bannister operated with surgical precision to reach his ultimate goal of becoming the first man to dip under four minutes for the mile.

But, as is so often the case, once a barrier is broken, it reminds others they too can do what just yesterday seemed impossible.

And, sure enough, 45 days later Australian John Landy went around the Turku track in Finland four times in 3:58 flat.
